A Blood-Moving Realm has arrived in the world of The Return of the Condor Heroes.
Chapter 43 Reconciliation Reached
"good!"
The two sides finally reached an agreement on the terms.
Zhang Huai turned his head and gave Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu a look, and the two immediately understood.
Yang Guo withdrew the long sword that was held to Liu Chuxuan's neck, and Xiaolongnu also withdrew her inner strength and disengaged from her fighting stance.
Upon seeing this, Liu Chuxuan and Wang Chuyi immediately rushed to Qiu Chuji's side and asked urgently:
"Senior brother, are you alright?"
Qiu Chuji raised his hand and waved it, his voice hoarse, indicating that the two were alright, and then urged:
"I'm not going to die yet, hurry and check on Junior Sister Sun and Junior Brother Hao!"
The two dared not delay and immediately split up. Liu Chuxuan went to Sun Bu'er's side, while Wang Chuyi ran towards Hao Datong.
Sun Bu'er was only injured all over and poisoned by the Jade Bee Needle, so she was stiff and numb and unable to move. Her life was not in danger.
Hao Datong's situation was much more dangerous; his life was in grave danger.
Huo Du's palm strike looked light and airy, far less powerful than the battle between Zhang Huai and the others and Qiu Chuji and the others, but it landed solidly on Hao Datong. The palm strike contained a hidden, subtle internal force that caused Hao Datong's internal organs to shift, leaving him barely breathing and in grave danger.
Wang Chuyi was so anxious that sweat beaded on his forehead. He quickly took out a few Seven-Star Soul-Sustaining Pills from his pocket, pried open Hao Datong's jaw, and fed them to him. These pills could only barely keep him alive. Only by calming down and healing his injuries immediately could he have a chance of survival.
On the other side, Liu Chuxuan used his internal energy to force the Jade Bee Needle out of Sun Bu'er's body, but the poison on the needle had already penetrated deep into the muscles, and with his current internal energy, he was unable to completely remove it.
He turned to Little Dragon Girl with a helpless expression, his tone pleading: "Miss Dragon..."
Xiaolongnu understood his meaning at a glance, and took out a bottle of jade bee jelly from her sleeve and threw it over.
Liu Chuxuan quickly caught it and carefully fed it to Sun Bu'er. He then used the last bit of his meager internal energy to heal her injuries, and Sun Bu'er was finally able to sit up with difficulty.
She caught her breath, her legs trembling as she stood up, and bowed deeply to Xiaolongnu, saying sincerely, "Thank you, Miss Long. I apologize for any offense I may have caused you."
Little Dragon Girl simply nodded slightly in response, her expression remaining calm.
Yang Guo then walked up to Qiu Chuji, raised an eyebrow, and asked, "Old man, can you still stand up?"
Qiu Chuji twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing a bitter expression, and slowly shook his head:
"Your brother's strength was too fierce. Even though I tried my best, I couldn't resist it. I broke several bones in both legs."
Yang Guo was not surprised to hear this. He knew Zhang Huai's superhuman strength all too well. If anyone else were to take a direct hit from him, they would be seriously injured if not killed. It was already remarkable that Qiu Chuji had managed to hold on until now.
He curled his lip and said, "Old man, you're lucky. All those years of hard training haven't been in vain. Anyone else would have been killed by my brother Huai with a single blow."
Looking at the young man before him, Qiu Chuji was filled with emotion and sighed softly, "Indeed, heroes emerge from among the young. I remember when I was young, I was also so full of vigor and ambition."
"Alright, old man, stop talking nonsense." Yang Guo said, reaching out to Qiu Chuji to help him up.
Qiu Chuji placed his hand on it with a bitter expression. Yang Guo gently pulled, only to find that the touch was soft and there was no leverage at all.
It turned out that the old Taoist priest not only had broken bones in both legs, but also all the bones in his hands were shattered. He had kept quiet about it before, just to save face.
Yang Guo sighed inwardly, thinking that Zhang Huai's broken mountain staff technique would be more aptly named "Bone-Melting Cotton Staff." He pondered that he would definitely discuss this name with Zhang Huai when he got back, but then he thought that "Bone-Melting Cotton Palm" sounded better.
Qiu Chuji tried to get up with Yang Guo's help, but many of his bones were broken, and he was in excruciating pain with the slightest movement, making it impossible for him to stand.
Yang Guo had no genuine intention of helping them. Although the two sides had reconciled, his resentment towards the Quanzhen Sect members had not disappeared.
After Liu Chuxuan's help, Sun Bu'er was able to walk with difficulty. Seeing that Qiu Chuji was in bad condition, she and Liu Chuxuan quickly stepped forward.
Liu Chuxuan immediately bent down and carried Qiu Chuji on his back. He was also seriously injured and weak, so he could only pick up a Quanzhen sword as a crutch to support himself and barely keep his feet steady.
On the other side, Zhang Huai stood beside Wang Chuyi, watching him anxiously administer qi to Hao Datong to heal his injuries, and said in a deep voice:
"Old Taoist, can this guy still be saved?"
As he spoke, he pointed to Hao Datong, who was lying on the ground unconscious and breathing weakly.
Wang Chuyi stopped practicing his internal energy cultivation, let out a long, sorrowful sigh, his tone filled with bitterness and regret:
"My junior brother's internal organs have shifted, and many of them have even been ruptured. Huo Du's palm technique is truly extremely vicious!"
Zhang Huai didn't directly answer his question, but changed the subject and asked, "I heard that Zhao Zhijing is your apprentice?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Chuyi's face flushed red and then turned pale. Filled with shame, he lowered his head and said, "To be honest, it is my fault for failing to discipline him properly."
Zhang Huai glanced at Wang Chuyi, who had his head bowed and eyes lowered, and spoke calmly:
"In our exchange just now, I can tell you're a sensible person. You held back in every move you made. Otherwise, your Quanzhen Sect wouldn't have been defeated so quickly."
Wang Chuyi gave a self-deprecating smile and said with a wry smile:
"Before the battle began, I sensed something was amiss, but my senior brother was stubborn and wouldn't turn back until he hit a brick wall."
I thought I should hold back, not wanting to harm the young heroes and the others, but in the end, it turned out that I was too arrogant.
You, Yang Guo, and Miss Long are all exceptionally talented individuals, outstanding talents among men. Why would an old man like me need to hold back?
"Get out of the way," Zhang Huai suddenly said.
Wang Chuyi was taken aback, a look of confusion on his face: "Hmm?"
Hao Datong was relying entirely on the internal energy that Wang Chuyi was continuously transferring to stabilize his breathing; if the energy were withdrawn, the consequences would be unimaginable.
A thought suddenly occurred to him: "Could it be that this young hero intends to take this opportunity to avenge Granny Sun, the mistress of Miss Long?"
Thinking of this, Director Wang immediately became vigilant, gathering all the remaining internal energy in his body. Even if the two sides had temporarily reached a reconciliation, he dared not easily trust the young man in front of him, fearing that he might secretly poison Hao Datong.
Zhang Huai noticed the change in his expression but didn't take it to heart, simply saying in a calm tone:
"With your meager remaining internal energy, how long can you keep him alive? If you don't want this old man to die here today, get out of the way."
"This..." Director Wang hesitated for a moment, his mind in turmoil. After a moment, he finally suppressed his concerns, stepped aside to make way, and said in a deep voice, "Young hero, please."
Zhang Huai raised his hand and took out a small white porcelain bottle from his bosom. He uncorked it and poured out a few bright red pills, which were warm to the touch.
This elixir was made by the group a few days ago in the ancient tomb when they had nothing to do. They used Zhang Huai's blood essence and various precious herbs to refine it into a life-extending pill. Although its medicinal effect is not as strong as that of boiling blood essence directly into a soup, it is still nine-tenths as effective.
He originally intended to leave these pills for Xiaolongnu and Yang Guo in case of emergency, so they could be used to save their lives in critical moments. He never expected that the first person to use these pills would be Hao Datong, who was their enemy.
Of course, Zhang Huai's essence and blood are not inexhaustible. He has been bleeding out repeatedly to refine pills, which has depleted his body. He needs to rest quietly for at least half a month to recover.
This is one of the reasons why Zhang Huai was unwilling to go all out in this encounter.
